That's a Wrap!

Had a great time on the set of Vampire Dairies! Episode 304 (season 3 episode 4). There was a lot of really great folks I had the pleasure of working with and meeting. I don't fancy wearing a suit all day outside in downtown ATL but it was worth it. I hope there are more work like that very soon!

Lights, Camera....Wait!

Ok...I moved to Nashville to be in the "Business."  I thought it would be music business. That is my background, my internships and well, honestly what I wanted to do...but after nearly 3 years of knocking on doors and multiple "Thanks but No Thanks" letters and interviews, I can only do what's in front of me...That's what I call THE HUSTLE!  It started when I found a notice on Craig's list for Extras for the Nashville filmed "Country Strong"....made it as an extra.  Cool! Something to do. Oddly enough...had a music video shoot call, TV Pilot call,  Short Film call (all extra or as my true acting friend calls it "Background Actor") Now, these opportunities had months of waiting in between...then I finally broke down...and had to admit...Yes I like this...Yes if I could, I would want to do it. So...that's what I am going to do...I have a photoshoot for a headshot next week, I will start Meisner Based acting classes as well and lo and behold....TV show called...still as an extra and 3 hours away in Atlanta...but will do it. Builds my resume, my experience and as always...something to do. 

New Blog

I finally am starting a personal blog....my previous attempts at blogging were mainly social commentary or book/movie reviews...usually anonymous.  Well, here we go...I will share my musings, thoughts, pet peeves, those things that make me pause and be glad I am alive...my story of the Hustle! The crazy situations I find myself in...the even crazier people I meet...basically life as normal. So now you know Watwood Happen!
